Inspiration of the Day: Cherish your solitude, Believe in kissing


"Cherish your solitude. Take trains by yourself to places you have never been. Sleep out alone under the stars. Learn how to drive a stick shift. Go so far away that you stop being afraid of not coming back. Say no when you don’t want to do something. Say yes if your instincts are strong, even if everyone around you disagrees. Decide whether you want to be liked or admired. Decide if fitting in is more important than finding out what you’re doing here. Believe in kissing." — Eve Ensler


I spent a good hour or so compiling this music playlist. It's a great playlist to listen to when you're looking for some chill time alone or with someone you'd want to relax with. Hope you have a happy weekend!

A Newbies Guide To Renewable Energy in US

Renewable energy is the fastest growing energy sector, despite the fact we still get the majority of our power from non-renewable sources. Oil, coal and fossil fuels are not only in limited supply, but are also detrimental to the health of the planet. On the other hand, renewable energy is in infinite supply and draws its power cleanly and naturally. Solar, wind, water and geothermal energy sources are the future of the industry and are expected to create 12 million new jobs through 2030. (via Carrington College)

Bringing light to the poor, one liter at a time (via reuters)




Video Description: A bottled liter of water with a few teaspoons of bleach is proving to be a successful recipe for dwellers in the light-deprived slums of the Philippines. The simple technology, made known by eco-entrepreneur, Illac Diaz, is spreading sunlight in places where it has never been, and saving residents money at the same time.

Inspiration of the Day: If I die tomorrow...

Tulum, Quintana Roo, Mexico Dec '10
If  f I die tomorrow, I will have no regrets.
 I have loved to love's deepest core and I’ve been loved,
even more than I've expected. 


I've lived my passion- fighting hard for a worthy cause -
and I fight not because of you, 
I fight for my little girl. 


I may be young,
but I've lived, 
and I'm living life everyday, 
as visceral and as full as I can make it.
